1792 Key templates will be customised to open customers locks, by punching holes in them. The position of the holes corresponds to a security number, revealed to the Internet trader by the customer, when placing an order.

The end of the 1792 Key which opens the lock is chopped off and drops inside the lock housing, as the lock is opened. It's a Use-Once-Only Key.

The stub of the 1792 Key is removed from the lock and retained by the delivery company. The stub has a new and different set of coded holes punched in it, by the action of opening the lock. These holes represent a signature for the lock and provide evidence of delivery.

Why is it called "1792 Technology"?

In 1792, an eminent French inventor by the name of Dr. Guillotine created an ingenious device, which caused heads to roll during the French Revolution. Our invention uses the same basic principle, but in a far more humane way.
